Abstract

The heat transfer and flow physics of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) were studied with cardiac cycle to illustrate the cardiac thermal pulse (CTP) of midriff skin surface. An infrared thermography (IRT) evaluation-based on AAA and abdomen skin surface detection method was proposed, respectively. Besides, from CFD rigid-wall and FSI Analysis, the transient bioheat transfer effect resulted in a circular thermal elevation on the temperature profile of midriff skin surface, at both regular body temperature and supine position, under normal clinical temperature. These findings suggest the influence of numerical simulation techniques on the prediction of thermal physics behaviours of AAA and abdominal skin surface.
